A Case Study Debate on the Nouri Grand Mosque

Join us for an exploration of loss, memory, and restoration as Hekayyatna presents a case study debate asking: "How Do We Rebuild Lost Heritage?" This event will focus on the iconic Nouri Grand Mosque in Mosul, Iraq—a symbol of cultural resilience that was tragically destroyed by ISIS.

In this engaging debate, we’ll delve into the complexities of heritage reconstruction, asking the crucial questions: What does it mean to rebuild a site of such historical and spiritual significance? How do we honour its memory while embracing the future? And who gets to decide how this legacy is restored?

The story of the Nouri Grand Mosque is more than just one of destruction; it is a narrative of identity, community, and the struggle to preserve history in the face of violence. Through a mix of expert insights and discussion, we’ll examine the various approaches to rebuilding—from faithful restoration to innovative reinterpretation.

We will use this opportunity to look at the broader implications: how do we rebuild what has been lost, and how do we ensure that the spirit of these sites lives on?

Come be a part of this critical dialogue where history, culture, and architecture intersect.
